Applicable measures for the district

The mildest measures apply to the orange districts. You have to wear a veil in them indoors. The obligation to wear a veil outdoors applies to mass events. Going out is unrestricted, so you can go out whenever you want.

Schools operate essentially normally. For primary and secondary schools, quarantine applies to the discovery of the disease and universities are largely limited.

If you are a college student, 100 people in the “base”, 400 OTP people or 1,000 if they are fully vaccinated will attend lectures in the Orange District. You will only be able to be in a boarding school if you have full-time teaching.

In the red district, ie in the 1st degree of danger, it is in interiors, including means of public transport and taxable respirators. In the exterior, mandatory covering of the upper airways with a veil, scarf or shawl at mass events.

Schools in these districts remain open. However, universities have stricter measures – 20 people in the “base”, 40 students with OTP or 120 if they are fully vaccinated. You can only be in a boarding school if you go to school in person.

If you belong to the burgundy district, a respirator must be worn on the nose and in the interiors, including public transport and taxis. In the exterior, the obligatory covering of the upper roads applies, either with a veil, respirator, scarf, or scarf, if you are less than two meters away from strangers.

In burgundy districts, they still function essentially normally. In vaccinated mode, you can dine outside the restaurant without capacity restrictions. In the interior, 4 people are allowed at one table or people from one household, with a table spacing of at least 2 meters and consumption of a seating area only.
